Definitions

  • the invention will be elucidated with reference to an offshore wind turbine. This reference does not however imply that the invention is limited thereto, and the lifting system and corresponding method can be applied equally well for placing any other elongate object on any ground surface. It is thus for instance possible to apply the invention in the context of arranging other offshore foundation structures, of jetties, of radar and other towers, and also for onshore applications.
  • a known method for placing a foundation pile or foundation jacket on an underwater bottom comprises of taking up the foundation pile or jacket from a vessel with a lifting crane and lowering the foundation pile or jacket onto or into the underwater bottom, optionally via an upending device. The foundation is then uncoupled from the lifting crane.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a lifting system and a method to be performed with the lifting system, which can be applied in conditions rougher than just calm. Such a lifting system and method can considerably increase the operational working time.
  • the invented lifting system for taking up an elongate object from a deck of a vessel comprises a crane arm which is connected to the deck and from which is suspended a take-up frame to which the elongate object can be attached, and further a winch setup and control lines connected thereto and configured to control the movement of the elongate object when this object is lifted off the deck, wherein the control lines run from the take-up frame to the winch setup, wherein a support structure which differs from the crane arm, extends from the deck to a height and is configured to be able to absorb the forces acting on the object while it is being lifted off the deck comprises the winch setup.
  • Controlling can also comprise of managing and damping the movement of the object.
  • the control lines which connect the elongate object via the take-up frame to a winch setup present on the support structure can be used to control the object movement such that the object orientation is kept substantially horizontal during lifting with the crane arm.
  • the swinging movement of the object can also be damped.
  • the take-up frame hangs here from at least one carrying hoisting cable for carrying the object weight.
  • the hoisting cable is connected movably to the crane arm.
  • control lines preferably do not run in a vertical direction but at an angle to the vertical direction other than zero.
  • the movement of the elongate object can hereby be controlled both in the vertical direction and in a horizontal direction.
  • Another advantage of the invention relates to the use of the listing system for damping the movements of the object. This results inter alia in better control of swinging movements of the object which may occur during lifting.
  • an elongate object is understood to mean an object with a length and a transverse dimension, wherein the length amounts to at least 5 times the transverse dimension, more preferably at least 6 times, still more preferably at least 7 times, still more preferably at least 8 times, still more preferably at least 9 times, and most preferably at least 10 times the transverse dimension.
  • the winch setup can comprise at least two winches for at least two control lines, wherein the two winches are controlled independently, if desired.
  • the pulley setup can also comprise at least two independent pulleys for at least two control lines.
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic perspective view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 of a support structure according to the invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of the output of a tensioning device according to an embodiment of the invention, which acts on the winch device.
  • winch setup 7 Arranged on a lower side of support structure 3 is a winch setup 7 .
  • Winch setup 7 can also be situated at a determined height above deck 10 .
  • winch setup 7 comprises two independently controllable winches ( 70 , 71 ) which operate two control lines 4 .
  • a pulley setup 8 Arranged on an upper side of support structure 3 is a pulley setup 8 comprising two independent pulleys ( 80 , 81 ) for the two control lines 4 . From the winch setup 7 shown clearly in FIGS. 3 and 4 , control lines 4 run over the pulley setup 8 arranged at greater height and from there to take-up frame 5 . As shown in FIG. 2 , control lines 4 can be attached to outer ends of take-up frame 5 , but also to a middle part thereof.
  • Control lines 4 are intended to control the orientation of a monopile 6 when this monopile 6 is lifted from a storage rack 11 off deck 10 , wherein control lines 4 run from take-up frame 5 to winch setup 7 .
  • Pulley setup 8 and, if desired, also winch setup 7 can be embodied movably in a height direction 31 relative to support structure 3 , for instance by having the setup ( 7 , 8 ) in question run on a rail guide.
  • movably is understood to mean that the setup ( 7 , 8 ) in question can be moved in height direction 31 and fixed in variable height positions.
  • the lifting system ( 2 , 3 , 4 ) can further comprise a tensioning device 73 which acts on winch device 7 in order to hold control lines 4 under tension while taking up a monopile 6 or other elongate object.
  • Swinging movements of monopile 10 can be damped with the tensioning device 73 .
  • the tension in control lines 4 will increase as according to the linear progression of FIG. 5 .
  • the tension in control lines 4 will decrease as according to the linear progression of FIG. 5 . Energy is consumed in this way.
